We left Dad at work and packed up the car and drove the 6+ hours to get to Westmoreland State Park which we used as our home base for fun. We were also able to make a day visit to neighboring state parks on the Northern Neck: Belle Isle State Park (along the shores of the Rappahannock River) and Caledon State Park (home to the largest concentration of Bald Eagles on the East Coast). We recommend all three of these parks!

Winter at Westmoreland was really great; we had no crowds, no hot sun or bugs, but plenty of adventure! Learn more about Westmoreland State Park here.
